The first International Community of Practise (iCoP) was established in April 2020 to respond to the impacts of the COVID-19 outbreak on SRHR and gender equality and to ensure the inclusion of a gender perspective in response and recovery planning. This iCoP is a collaboration between Share-Net members from all country hubs as well as international members.

Following the first online meeting, the most crucial topics and activities that the iCoP would work on were discussed, forming the following focus subgroups:

1. GBV and harmful traditional practices
2. SRHR in fragile and humanitarian settings
3. Intersectionality
4. Post-COVID world: Advocacy for the future
5. Contraception and abortion
6. Empowerment & Gender Equality
7. Integration WASH and SRHR

You can watch the recording of the online meeting here.
